Seeking an affordable, charming home with an emphasis on sustainability? Look no further. This property incorporates green power generation, fruit trees, gardening, natural building materials, a little water catchment, and more. With 2 outbuildings, a large utility room, and a bonus room in addition to the 2 bedrooms, this home punches above its weight in its flexibility for your lifestyle. Original fir and oak floors remain in the living room, bedrooms, and bonus room, even as many other improvements were added 4 years ago: all new pest- and fire-resistant fiber cement siding; a super energy efficient mini split heating and cooling unit; a newly constructed front porch; and remodeled kitchen with beautiful cabinetry and granite counters. This home is powered entirely by electricity, so you can take full advantage of the solar system that is on a PREPAID lease–you get approximately 5200 kWh of FREE ELECTRICITY EVERY YEAR for the remaining 11 years of the lease (a total savings of $22,000+ based on current rates). Why not reduce your carbon footprint and save $$? Lots of space is available for gardening in raised beds and other areas, and you can already enjoy mandarins, cherries, grapes, pears, lemons, apples, clementines, pink grapefruit, and more. The expansive covered patio provides room for entertaining friends, playing table tennis, or whatever you can imagine–just about anything will fit. At the far end of the back yard, a newer shed offers abundant storage capacity. Opposite it, the “casita” outbuilding with loft is made of wood and cob, an earth-based mixture used for centuries for keeping buildings temperature stable and creating beautiful, one-of-a-kind structures. Seize your chance and schedule a showing of this unique, affordable property today.
